[PATCH] powerpc: Add CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP
This patch adds a Kconfig variable, CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP, which configures the built kernel for use as a Kdump kernel. Currently "all" this involves is changing the value of KERNELBASE to 32 MB. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
